Job title or description

Local film industry reporter.

About me

I've worked at the StarNews as a features writer for the past nine years. And I've covered a lot of beats -- everything from music and nightlife to outdoor adventure and, of course, the local film community.
I took over this beat after the previous film reporter left to travel the world. But I wasn't given this job just because I was the only one available. (I wasn't available, really. I had to stop gathering nighclub news to get this gig.)
I've lived around film folks my entire life. My sister is a 20-plus year veteran of the industry. She's done a lot of work in Wilmington and even more elsewhere in the country. And I grew up with that around me.
Back in my high school days she even hired me to work on a few shows during the summers -- "Matlock" and the made-for-TV movie starring John Ritter, "Holy Joe."
I spent time in the production office at EUE/Screen Gems and, once in awhile, on location.
So I know the people, I know the business and I knew I wanted this beat.
Enjoy the site, use it to your advantage. And, most of all, connect with your fellow film freaks.
As always, let me know if you have any suggestions or comments on how we can make WilmOnFilm.com work better for you.

We killed the spam!

Need Cialis? I didn't think so.
We've been getting a lot of interesting posts from pharmaceutical companies lately who think our local film industy needs, well, let's just say, pharmaceuticals.
I told Web guru Joel Axon and he sifted through our memberships weeding out the fake ones. He's also set up WilmOnFilm on an approval-only basis now.
That means each new member must go through me, a real live person, first.
I'm sorry if the ads caused any problems. We've fixed it and are moving right alon… Continue
